User Plans and roles Permissions Validating

Hello guys , I'm working on an application (building APIs ) where the user have plans (each plan has it's own features)

I have an owner of a market who has plan for this (storage,emails,etc..) , the market has roles and permissions for workers (create-show-edit,etc..)

I want to know what's the best way to validate the owner if he is able to perform a certain action or not with the minimum amount of querying

notice that I have to validate for each method if the user's Market has the right plan to do this action or not ! and then validate for the worker if he has the right permission to do that or not

I also use Entrust package for dealing with user roles and permission (permission for user is different from his plan )

my database design for System plans

##Plans Table | id | name | description

##Features Table | id | feature

##plan_features table | id | plan_id | feature_id

I'm validating the user by this

$features =$user->plan->features

and then checking if the action I want is in the returned collection or not.

I do this in every action which requires validating

but I see this approach as a bad practice to do in a big project and would like to decrease the no. of queries as possible
